(Humming melody)
Rhodes piano soft chords fading in
Ooh, yeah, yeah
Salam, yeah
You said TTYL, girl I'm like yeah I know
But I'm married, gotta keep my heart closed
Late night texts, you hittin' my phone
Love you, but I gotta leave you alone
Fafoo, you're the one that captured my soul
But halal is where my heart gotta grow
Respect on my ring, gotta let it be
TTYL means I gotta leave, let it be
Yeah, four milli minus, I been countin' losses
Every step I take, I'm weighin' up the costs and
The distance that we kept, it was never enough
I'm buildin' up a home, but this road is so tough
I see you in the vision, but the vision is blurred
I keep my promises, I keep my solemn word
No shade to the past, I'm just living for the future
Fixin' up the cracks, I'm the love-life suture
But loyalty is heavy, like an anchor in the deep
I'm sowin' up the seeds that I'm supposed to reap
I'm back to the basics, back to the truth
Losing the feeling of the wasted youth
You said TTYL, girl I'm like yeah I know
But I'm married, gotta keep my heart closed
Late night texts, you hittin' my phone
Love you, but I gotta leave you alone
Fafoo, you're the one that captured my soul
But halal is where my heart gotta grow
Respect on my ring, gotta let it be
TTYL means I gotta leave, let it be
I'm staring at the ceiling, thinking 'bout the choices
Drowning out the static and the inner voices
She's sleeping by my side, I'm a man on a mission
Trying to keep my spirit in a holy condition
It's hard to be a saint when the devil's in the text
Always wondering what's coming up next
But I lock the door, turn off the light
Everything I do, I'm doing it right
I put the phone down, silent on the screen
Living for the real, not the life in a dream
My heart is committed, my path is laid out
Taking away every shadow of a doubt
It's not that I don't care, it's not that I'm cold
It's just the story that I already told
A man has a duty, a man has a vow
And I'm standing right here, I'm keeping it now
No turning back, no looking behind
Peace of the spirit, peace of the mind
You said TTYL, girl I'm like yeah I know
But I'm married, gotta keep my heart closed
Late night texts, you hittin' my phone
Love you, but I gotta leave you alone
Fafoo, you're the one that captured my soul
But halal is where my heart gotta grow
Respect on my ring, gotta let it be
TTYL means I gotta leave, let it be
Yeah, let it be
Just let it go
It's a long road, yeah
TTYL
